The Strada del Vino Colli
Euganei (Wine Road of the
Euganean Hills) extends up to
the inside of the Euganean Hills
Regional Park, established in
1989, with its 18.072 hectares
comprises the largest relief of
the hills of the Po Valley.
Age-old oaks and chestnut tree
forests alternate in the maquis
shrub land and the ample
terracing of tilled vineyards
and orchards.
Nowadays the natural vocation of
the Hills, wine production, has
become institutionalised by a
Protected Designation of Origin
status (PDO, or Denominazione di
Origina Controllata in Italian)
with the recognition of more
than 13 extraordinary wines.
There is a considerable
gastronomic tradition as well.
The Abano Ritz, in
partnership with the Strada del
Vino dei Colli Euganei, offers
those tourists who enjoy wine
the opportunity to visit the
place where wine is created and
to experiment with the
relationship between gastronomy
and place of origin. We ask that
you dedicate some of your
precious time to view everything
with an inquiring eye so as to
stimulate your senses, thus
experiencing a vacation to
satisfy your palate.
Alongside Strada del Vino dei
Colli Euganei (Wine Street of
the Euganean Hills) we come
across and savour:
More than 40 wine cellars: open
to the public for guided visits
of the wine cellars and the
vineyards and wine tasting, plus
tasting of local products.
